The Great Gatsby has become one of the great American novels. A tale built upon but also critical of the American Dream.
About this Event

The Great Gatsby is best known from its adaptations, but to truly understand this work from 1925, requires reading the text from one of America's most famous authors, F. Scott Fitzgerald. This is one of those books that can be analyzed from almost every perspective, so read up and get ready for a great discussion.
